Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented April 2 1907.

To all whom, it may concern:

Be it known that I, CORNEIL RIDDERHOF, a citizen of the United States,residing at Grand Rapids, in the county of Kent and State of Michigan,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Phonographs, of

This invention relates to improvements in phonographs.

It relates particularly to improvements in magazine-phonographs such asis illustrated and described in United tates Letters Patents issued toCyrus C. Shigley, May 5, 1903, No. 727,002, and October 25, 1904, No.773,164, and is a modification and an improvement thereon. I

The objects of this invention are, first, to provide in amagazine-phonograph an improved means for automatically bringing the,records intoproper osition for the reproduction thereof; second, toprovidein a phonograph improved means for bringing the reproducer intoand out of engagement with the record-rolls. Further objects and objectsrelatin to structural details will definitely appear om the detaileddescription to follow.

'I accomplish the objects of iny invention by the devices and meansdescribed in the following specification.

The invention is clearly defined, and pointed out in the claims.

A structure embodying the features of my invention is clearlyillustrated in the accompanying drawings, forming a part of thisspecification, in which' Figure 1 is a side elevation view of astructure embodying the features of my invention,

a portion of the magazine-wheel being broken away to show the structuraldetails. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the structure ap earing in Fig. 1..Fig. 3 is an enlarged detai sectional view taken one line correspondingto line 3 3.

of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a detail rear elevation view looking from the leftof Fig. 1'. Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail view showing .the struc- 'turaldetails of the trip for throwing thereproducer outofengagementwith therecordroll. Fig. 6 is a detail'section of the magazineeshiftingmechanism, taken on a line correspondingto line 6 f Fig. 7. Fig. 7. is adetail section taken-on lines 7 7- of Figs. '1-

In the drawings the'sectional views are I taken looking in the directionof the little arrows at the ends of the section-lines, and similarletters of reference refer to similar parts throughout the severalviews.

Referring to the drawings, A isa' suitable. base', and A is a'standardorupright thereon,

by which-the operative parts of the machine are supported. The machineis usually provided with a suitable casing, the same not being hereillustrated.

The record-rolls are sli ported by a magazine-wheel consisting. o a;pair of rims B, which are rigidly secured together by suitablecross-pieces, asb. The wheel is mounted upon the spindle B, carried bythe standard A. vThe record-rolls (see the dotted lines in Fig.2) aremounted on suitable 'mandrels X, which are supported in'suitablebearings carried on the'ri'm's. -:The mandrel and the arrangement ofthese bearings forming no part of this invention are not describedindetailherein. I

One of the rims provided on its peri h- I cry with a plurality ofnotches b, th'ere eing oneto each mandrel. A pawl C, arranged to bear onthe periphery ofthis rim, is ivotally mounted on the lever C. A

c oi ed spring sholds thispawl against the i i The lever C is providedwith a hub like head C, which is mounted on the shaft B of themagazine-Wheel. The leveris actuated .in its forward position by theWeight w, which is carried by the arm 0, pivoted on a-suit able studa onthe standard A. is connected to theflever C by the link 0, whichis'pivoted to the short arm 0 thereof. By thus-connecting the weight; tothe lever The weight f the power is delivered thereto, so that themagazine-wheel is advanced withoutthe accelerated motion resultingfromdirectly connectin wheel eing advanced and stopped with aminimum shock,so that there is-practically: no, vibration of the machine after theadjus ment.-- This permitsthe arrangement of t. I.

parts so that the reproducercan be'irnm'ed-iately thrown into engagementwith the, rec-, ord-roll without the liability of injury thereto andwithout producing the disagreeable sounds that would otherwise bethe'res'ult.

The lever C 15 returned to its initial posi- 5 tion by the movement ofthe carriage D, by l which the reproducer is carried, the reproducer notbeing here illustrated, its relation clearly appearing in the patentsreferred to. The lever C is connected/to the carriage D why the cord 'G,as clearly appears from the drawings.

The carriage D is reciprocatingly mounted on the ways (I and d, whichare preferably in the form of rods and are carried by the frame D Theframe D is secured to the upper end of the standard A. The carriage isreturned to its initial position by the weight W through the connectionsdescribed. A threaded driving-shaf,t F for the carriage is mounted insuitable bearings in the frame D. A rock-shaft D is carried by thecarriage. On this r0ck-shaft is an arm E, having a blade E, adaptedtoengage the screw driv-' ing-shaft F, so that as the shaft is revolved 25 the carriage is driven along thereby. The

blade E is adjustably secured in the end of the arm E, the end ofthe-arm being split and 'rovided witha clamping-screw e. (See As thecarriage is driven along the lever C is lifted until the pawl C engagesin the.

notch of the successive record-roll, and when the carriage is releasedfor its return to its initial position the magazine is advanced as 5'described. Y

' When the carriage reaches the end of its movement, the driving-bladeis automatically thrown out 0fv engagement with the shaft by means ofthe trip-arm F, which is 4o secured'upon the shaft F. On this trip-arm Iis a laterally-projectingtrip pin f. The trip-pin f is adjustablysecured onthe arln F by means of a suitable set-screwf". On

the inner end of this pin f is a plate f. This I pin f as the carriagereaches the 611(l'0fits movement engages the trip-arm eon therock-shaft, rocking the same rearwardly,

thereby throwing the driving-arm E out of engagement with theshaft, Thisrearward 5o movement of the rock-shaft throws the arm L, carriedthereby, from under the motorcontrolling lever M, allowing the same todrop and thereby stopping the motor. This arrangement beingsubstantially that del 5 5 scribed in the patents heretofore mentionedis not illustrated in detail herein. The plate f engaging'the arm eof-the rock-shaft after the same is thrown up by the pin f, retains thecarriage at the-end of its movement until the ;driving-shaft is againstarted, when the Then the carriage reaches its initial position, thearm e on the rock-shaft, which extends under the drivingshaft, isengagedby the pinf, projecting from 6 5- the arm F, carried by thedriving-shaft. As

- pin T, which projects from the standard A.

, ters Patent, is-

l engagement with the shaft. 1

Eat-h of the reconl-nmndrels is provided with a thin disk-like wheel I,which as the magazine is advanced. are brought into position to beengaged by the friction-wheel I, which is carried by the pivoted frameI. The frame I is lifted to throw the wheel I out of its engagingposition by the forwardlyprojecting arm' J, which is preferably anextension ofthe driving-arm E. This arm-J engages a rod i, carried bythe pivoted frame I when the arm E is liftec The locking dog H of themagazine-wheel is connected by a suitable link it to the frame I, sothat the magazine-wheel is released when the carriage reaches the end ofits movement, so that it is free to be adjusted upon the introduction ofa coin, which starts the motor, and thereby the shaft.

When it is desired to reproduce some particular record otherthan thatfor which the machine would automatically adjust itself, the magazine isautomatically adjusted by means of the friction-wheel S. (See Figs. 1,6, and 7.) This wheel is secured to a shaft S, whichis arranged in asuitable bearing on the standard S.- The bearing for the shaftsufficiently large to allow the tilting of the 5 shaft to bring thewheel S into contact with the magazine-wheel, as is indicated by dottedlines in Fig. 6. The inner end of the shaft S is pivotally connected bythe link T to the 1C 0 lifriction is applied to the link to insure-thelifting of the wheel S into contact with the magazine wheel' by thespring 8. This spring is a blade-spring, slightly'b'owed, arranged withits ends contacting with the face of the wheel S, as clearly appearsfrom Figs. 6 and 7. The link and spring are held upon the shaft by thenut s. I preferably interpose friction-washers S, of leather, fiber, or.other suitable material, between the link and nut and the link andspring.

In order to prevent the nut clamping the link and sprin too tightly, Ipreferably arrange a sleeve S upon the shaft for the nut to clampagainst, the inner end of the sleeve bearing againstthe wheel S. i In myimprovements I have materially simplified the structure of the patentsrferredto, making the same more economical to produce and more durable.

I have illustrated and described the same in detail in the formpreferred by me, although I am aware that it is capable of considerablevariation in structural details'without departing from my inventionHaving thus described my invention, what I claim'as new, and desire tosecure by LetliIn. a magazinephonograph, the comblnation of a frame; amagazine-wheel; a
